Oppose Per Ikan and one big dust spot between towers.--Mile (talk) 08:01, 22 September 2021 (UTC)- I fixed the spot. No idea how to fix posterization though. If i simply use "spot fix" all over the sky, will it do any good? --Andrei (talk) 10:09, 22 September 2021 (UTC)

Comment Good shot, i suggest some crop on top and bottom (portrait mode really dont work here, unles pano - i tried, rotation does not work), and to correct mistake (anoted).--Mile (talk) 14:40, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
- We already have a cropped version that is used across several Wikipedias to illustrate the dish.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 15:43, 21 September 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose This strange green I don't understand; hopefully it's not the potatoes that look like this. The knife should not have been as dirty and worn. This picture of the same dish I find much more appetizing (though still not sufficient for FP). --A.Savin 01:05, 22 September 2021 (UTC)

- Comment As the uploader appears to be AWOL, I've taken the liberty of dialing in magenta +10. Hopefully this should resolve the green tint issue. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 14:58, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Thank you very much – IMHO your version is definitely better. Funny coincidence: While you were uploading your version, Radomianin and me were also discussion how to improve this photo, and Radomianin has created yet another version which I like very much. @Radomianin: I would just suggest that you upload your edited version over the original, too, just as King of Hearts has done. Then everybody who is interested can compare the versions, and when King of Hearts’ version gets more approval (or even the original version), we can still revert the photo to the approved version. I hope this is OK for everyone :–). Best, --Aristeas (talk) 16:14, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- New version uploaded Many thanks to Aristeas for your comment. Mile's version was used as the basis for my editing. I only edited the relevant area of the moussaka: Selective color correction and softening of too sharp hotspots in this area. Greetings :) -- Radomianin (talk) 16:44, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Info I hope the overwriting is according to the rules, because finally no photographer wants that his version is overwritten without being asked. Therefore at this point a ping to the author, even if he seems to be unreachable at the moment: Dear Wikimedian @Cuklev: I took the liberty to remove the green color cast in your moussaka photo as good as possible. During the FP voting process, some users noticed this flaw. I hope this edit is OK for you. Kind regards :) -- Radomianin (talk) 18:30, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Further note: Regarding my edit, I left a message on the author's talk page. -- Radomianin (talk) 23:10, 23 September 2021 (UTC)

- Support per Aristeas and Daniel(!) To me, it's the combination of the underside of the bridge and the trams that makes the composition. In other words, I think I see what appealed to Mile when he shot this photo. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:41, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
- Comment talk, Ikan Kekek I see a good harmony between the elements (metal construction, stone beam, tram). I like composition very much, as did User:Mosbatho when on QI ("Excellent composition"). You dont have to lock on one subject, sometime you have to "Think outside the box". If i would do a reshot, i would do same compo, just add some traffic lights on bypassing traffic (cars). It is still in category Transport-Transport infrastructure. --Mile (talk) 13:24, 26 September 2021 (UTC)

But the digitization is less than perfect. The clipping blacks have already been mentioned, but there's also a lot of dirt in the top left corner. The shadow gradient at the right edge shows some serious posterization that's not there in the unedited .tif. And with the already very tight crop of the original, I don't think getting rid of the round corners by cropping even more is the way to go … (why does everything need to be squared anyway?) --El Grafo (talk) 14:29, 1 October 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose Quite far below the high bar for fungi. Have a look at our collection, especially those by Holger Krisp. This one is covered by some twigs. The lighting isn't flattering. There's no lovely 3D feel like with Krisp's photos. And I assume you used a high ISO so you could hand hold the camera. The best photos have long exposure so presumably the camera is on a bag or other mount. -- Colin (talk) 16:30, 30 September 2021 (UTC)

- Support Both pictures are very nice and well done. -- Radomianin (talk) 08:08, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Both pictures are too similar. Perform an axial symmetry of one of them and you get almost the same image left and right. Thus I don't see the point of a set in that case -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:34, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
- Comment The 2 photos are of the same seed boxes. The one from the "front". The other from the "back". There is a clear difference in the colours. This is because one side has always been in the sun and the other side has not. Personally, I like the different "earth colors".--Famberhorst (talk) 15:31, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
- Imperceptible difference, and not a spectacular feature. What would show the 90° views? -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:52, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per Basile. Let's please not have flowers/seeds/plants from different angles. The symmetry means there isn't really sufficient educational value in having the other side. Yes, few things are 100% symmetrical due to weather or wear and tear or just imperfect development. But in a lot of cases, there's likely more variation between specimens than there is between sides. Even things that aren't as symmetrical as a flower or seed, like a plant or tree or bush, there isn't anything fundamentally different between one side and the other side. A plant, for example, doesn't have a front or back. -- Colin (talk) 16:18, 30 September 2021 (UTC)

- Comment Commons:Picture of the Year/2020/R1/v/Nighthawks by Edward Hopper 1942.jpg. It might not be the best idea to nominate a delist and replace (as you should do when a new version is available) while people are voting on this for POTY 2020. It would be better to wait until the contest is over. Replacing an FP during the competition would be a nightmare for the code writers and rather confusing for voters. --Cart (talk) 15:12, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Cart I know that. And would not replace it. But when i saw source isn't as picture shown i made this one. --Mile (talk) 16:53, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
- I'm not talking about you overwriting the existing FP, but the usual practice is that there should not be two FPs of the same painting. If a new one is made, like here, that version is usually put up for a "Delist and replace"-nomination (Example). If such a nom was successful during the POTY voting, it would mean that we would have to replace the current FP. That would be very messy. I leave it up to the FPC community to decide if we should have two FPs of this painting, but I would ask you not to make things difficult for the POTY voting, please. --Cart (talk) 17:11, 30 September 2021 (UTC)

- Gallery: Commons:Featured pictures/Animals/Fish#Family_:_Carcharhinidae_(Requiem_Sharks)
- Info Blue shark (Prionace glauca) being photographed by a fellow diver between the islands of Pico and Faial, Azores, Portugal. The blue shark is a species of en:requiem shark, in the family Carcharhinidae, that inhabits deep waters (images taken though between 5 and 10 meter below water) averaging around 3.1 m (10 ft) and preferring cooler waters. They can live up to 20 years, can move very quickly and feed primarily on small fish and squid, although they can take larger prey. I like the composition of this picture very much and yes, I'm aware that the diver could be sharper. The diver gives a sense of the size of the shark, is captured taking a shot of the shark at that precise moment (giving a lot of dynamic to the image) and the fact that there a no bubbles makes the picture more balanced and smooth.

- Mild Support: You guys really think this would fail CR in QIC? Granted, it looks oversharpened on my 23.5-inch monitor, but it looks good and maybe just a tad overexposed on my 13-inch monitor, and moreover, it's beautiful and striking. I dissent from you guys' opinion about this. I guess I'm not totally sure it should be featured, but I think pixel-peeping to this extent on such a big monitor might not be the best yardstick - it's impressive when photos look totally great at that size, but we've featured plenty of photos that are a little fuzzy or noisy when they're blown up that big. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:01, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Dear Ikan, thank you for reminding the rule to prefer the wow effect over the technical quality for the FP program. And this image has a wow. I reviewed the photo in Photoshop with 100% view on a 23 inch monitor. Maybe my decision was too strict, but I missed the fine image details in this view. I will reconsider my voting. Many regards. -- Radomianin (talk) 21:01, 26 September 2021 (UTC)

- Thank you again, Aristeas! We have been both here for more than 15 years, and the technical quality of the photos have improved dramatically during this period. A possible perverse effect of such improvement is, imho, the exaggerated attention to technical perfection, sometimes driving the reviewers to forget about the subject, composition, etc. while pixel-peeking into the minute details of the images, looking for sins. But we have also enjoyed from the talent of many users, some of them no longer here.

Wrt Dey.sandip's argument, the child is not merely a small reference to provide some scale but pretty much the centerpiece; along the central line in the otherwise only empty space. To me the child does not enhance the picture but does the contrary by removing an otherwise serene atmosphere, and the blur just makes it worse. --Trougnouf (talk) 08:17, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

- Info Taken at the gritty and chaotic Garibaldi station, in Naples. I like that the image is about people (something I rarely manage to do), I like there is plenty to explore (e.g. the couple kissing, the old gentleman tourist squinting at his guide, the sea of cigarette butts by the tracks), and I like how the slow shutter speed gives a sense of movement to the train and those walking by. I'm not crazy about the left crop, and I cloned out half a person from the right (personally I don't have an issue with cloning, as long as it is documented, but some may disagree). Julesvernex2 (talk) 14:29, 25 September 2021 (UTC)

- Thanks Mile. While I was editing the image I considered a crop very similar to the one you propose, but found that it took away the ceiling's leading lines that draw the eye to the people and passing train. I also like how the outermost leading lines end right at the corner of the frame (I find myself often doing this in wide angle shots e.g. here, here or here) Julesvernex2 (talk) 20:52, 26 September 2021 (UTC)

- Info Moray eel (Muraena augusti), Monte da Guia, Faial Island, Azores, Portugal. It belongs to the family of moray eel and is endemic of the Canary Islands, Madeira and Azores. It is non-migratory, and dwells at a depth range of 0 to 250 metres (0 to 820 ft), most often at around 0 to 50 metres (0 to 164 ft). It is active during the night and hides in holes or crevices during the day. It can reach up to 100 centimetres (39 in) length and is a carnivore that feeds on small fishes, shrimps and crabs. Like all other moray eels their vision is poor but their sense of smell extraordinary. All by me, Poco a poco (talk) 10:16, 26 September 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose It is not always a challenge to get closer to moray eels and the danger is minimal. This is too small for me and the definition not so good. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:28, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
- Charlesjsharp can we please forward this theoretical discussion to a more realistic one? you have 2 ways to photograph something like this: 1) go for a macro lens port and get very close to the moray, I have such a port for my 100mm but I wouldn't get that close (I would preset the lens to a range of 20cm-50cm, that's the way to get detail, which you cannot change under the water anymore) or 2) you can use a wide lens port, like the one I used here for 35 mm and got somewhere between 100-200 cm away from the moray, this is the result. I cannot go underwater with my e.g. 28-300 mm lens, there are no lens ports for that, so the choices are very limited and not comparable to what most the people know. I cannot change ports or lenses under the water and as you know this is wildlife, get to the spot 5 times to see the moray only once. Poco a poco (talk) 11:00, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
- As you know, I have no expertise at all in underwater photography but I am an experienced diver. I have had many encounters with morays over the years and had I had a camera could have snapped good images. Morays seldom exit their holes and are usually easy for repeat sightings. They are not known to be aggressive towards divers. What sort of lens would have been used for this image? Charlesjsharp (talk) 13:17, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose This is what happens when you use a 16mm lens on a full frame camera. Hmm. I wonder what you get if you use a 35mm lens? Well Poco should know because he took this, this, this and this the previous year. All around 12 MP, not 3MP like we have here. All with much more detail and more animal visible. The first of these was promoted to FP in August 2020.
- I get that this one has some dramatic darkness to it, but it is still just a very soft 3MP and if I draw a box round the visible animal, I get 0.5MP. If we pretend this is "Featured Thumbnail" for a moment, then this black moray is great with lots of detail and animal behaviour on show.
- There are other morays on Commons such as this laced moray (8MP), fimbriated moray (7MP), a spotted one (6MP) and ribbon moray (11 MP, and taken with a Canon Powershot). We have an FP ribbon moray (3.9MP) from 2013 taken with a Canon Rebel. And this fabulous green moray (5MP) also from 2013 and taken with a Canon Powershot.
- So why in 2021 should we accept a tiny 0.5MP image of a moray's head taken with $$$$ professional equipment when we've had better larger photos taken with consumer compact cameras? I get that it is impossible to change lens underwater, but plenty of us have been in situations where the ideal lens was at home, and you don't see Charles asking us to accept a blurry 0.5MP butterfly because he left his macro lens on the shelf and only had his ultra-wide on him. And, you know, there are plenty here who simply don't have the $$$$ to buy better equipment to reach FP standard for some of the photos they take, and just accept that. Perhaps I should nominate a mobile phone photo with a "Sorry, I left my Leica at home" excuse.
- There are LOTS of really striking images on Commons that are only a few MP. Are the supporters of this one happy to drop the standards for all those, or is it just Poco's nominations that get a special pass? -- Colin (talk) 13:50, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
- Take for example Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:F-16 engine test.jpg, which is currently getting all its 30 million pixels pixel-peeped (compare it at 3MP with the above). Maybe Senior Airman Kevin Long should remind that none of us are experienced fighter pilots, and that Commons has no other photos of F-16 engines firing! -- Colin (talk) 14:33, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
- We are not judging other images in terms of FPC, some of them look good, but that doesn't mean that this one isn't deserving the star. Indeed, some of those images come from experienced and skilled people outside of the movement with great archives that sharie some of their works with a free license, others are taken though in an aquarium. I'm sure that Charles will agree with me that taking a zoo picture is not similar to take one in a safari in Madagascar or South Africa, the same applies to an aquarium, and not to mention ethical aspects.
- Same applies to images with more modest equipment, sure, why not? place, time, skills, etc. do play a role, photography is not mathematics.
- No, I don't need a special pass, and I hope everybody judges this image as it is, still I will not get too close to a black moray just because others did. Poco a poco (talk) 17:28, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
- Poco, the fact that other images were taken by non-Commoners is not a factor in FPC judging rules. Indeed, we very typically review such images more harshly than those by Commoners and they are much less likely to be nominated in the first place. None of the better images I linked to are taken in an aquarium, so that claim of yours is false. Your complaint about getting close to a moray is baseless, because you yourself have taken higher resolution images when you had a more appropriate lens on your camera. The real reason this image is so tiny and soft is that you had an ultra-wide lens on. At the FPC talk page, one reviewer claimed that for technical quality they expected "state-of-the-art image quality" at FPC, and they do indeed frequently pixel peep 24+MP images. But better and much higher resolution images have been taken and uploaded, at sea, with cheap compact cameras eight years ago... It is clear this does not represent a high level for technical quality, and at around 0.5MP for the creature, is an image with limited usability beyond web thumbnail. Not our finest. -- Colin (talk) 07:51, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
- There are more issues at play here. Colin's assessment is good from a photographic perspective, but can I add another. Diego was, until recently, a self-acknowledged novice diver learning about underwater photography. Novice divers (and those they dive with) cannot control their buoyancy as well as experienced divers. Expert buoyancy control is essential to get close to marine life without damaging coral and scaring animals. Carrying a camera must make this even more of a challenge. Novice divers, and those they dive with, stir up silt from the bottom and this affects visibility. Finally, the finest underwater shots are taken in tropical locations at the perfect time of year with no plankton. You just don't get these conditions in the Atlantic. And the best shots are taken in really shallow water where the light is good. And I have dived with expert photographers who possess much more sophisticated technical set-ups. On land, we have had many years and many opportunities to perfect our skills and still struggle to get it right. There could be a drop in the credibility of FP if Diego's worthy images are promoted simply because they are better than other underwater shots we have on the site to compare them with. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:29, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
- Charlesjsharp, I agree with you in mostly everything, bouyancy is a key and as you guess, it is more challenging with a big camera that needs own weights. At the begining it was a big issue and it didn't help me that I always insisted to have the camera with me, but the advantage was that later I didn't have to learn again how to deal with the camera. I guess that I needed about 30 to 40 hours diving to move gently in the water thanks to a good bouyancy. My only problem now is that if I go without a camera I don't know what to do with my hands :) I always try to go diving alone with an instructor, who are always experienced to avoid the risk of even worse visibility due to stired up silt. In fact, it's tricky to go with a group because they would always have to wait for me. I also agree with your comments regarding the Atlantic, but the fauna you find here and in the Caribbean or far Asia is different, so it still makes sense to try it hard in Europe IMHO (furthermore traveling far away is still an issue with COVID). And of course, shallow transparent waters where you find a lot of fauna would be a dream. Instead, I need different lighting sets and other stuff and have no place anymore for underwear in my suitcase. :)
- One last statement about Colin's $$$$ comments above. As said, expensive equipment is not a guarantee for anything and you can get a great shot which far less money, we all agree on that, but I don't think that it is per se wrong. In general, if you have a clue about photography you should get better results with better equipment. I believe, that the movement should be happy about it, if I spend my money traveling to many places with expensive photo equipment and document all I see, and at the same time live in a tiny rented apartment. Seeing so many dollar signs somebody could believe I'm a rich guy throwing money through the window, but in fact that money is missed somwhere else... Poco a poco (talk) 10:43, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
- The fact remains that the previous year Poco took several photos of a moray eel that are significantly higher resolution, far more detailed, display more of the animal features. So lets forget the beginner/expert factor or the clear Maldives or plankton and scary biting animals and just consider that compared to last year, the lens you had was not appropriate for detailed photos of small creatures. We are here to judge whether this is among the finest images on Commons, not to give Poco gold stars as a reward for learning to dive with a camera, or to make allowances for him still being a beginner diver. That's what barnstars and other personal messages are for. As I said, there are dramatic aspects to this image that look good on the wee thumbnail we have at FPC. Anyone here got a voting history that suggests they would support a 3MP (and 0.5MP subject) image like this from a non-commoner, or indeed, from just about anyone else but Poco? Confident that you've never opposed a 14MP underwater image for sharpness that looks just fine at 3MP? -- Colin (talk) 16:43, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

- Weak Support It's a very nice image, though the 8 MP resolution could be better. We have an existing FP which is 30 MP, though it is far from sharp at pixel level. Still, the difference in composition and lighting is sufficient for me to accept two FPs of the same subject; this one has a more tranquil, less in-your-face feeling. We also have some very high-quality photos by Carol Highsmith, but they lack the magic of the golden aspens. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 07:01, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose I think this is one of the problems with WLM in countries with plenty photographers. We often get images that don't add a lot to our existing collection. Yes we have six excellent, high-resolution (48MP) sharp photos by Carol Highsmith and an excellent FP. This slightly soft 7MP image might have golden trees, but so does the better FP (which really glow in that photo), and the difference in light here is due to it being overcast (hence the photographer has chosen not to include the sky). This Highsmith is from the same viewpoint but includes much more context surroundings, and has lovely summer sky. The hard sunlight in that photo highlight the 3D of the rocks and wooden structures. This photo here just seems like any ordinary tourist snap on an overcast day. -- Colin (talk) 08:26, 3 October 2021 (UTC)

OpposeNeutral This picture transmits a feeling of artificiality, owing to the overall greenish tone. It could be that these colours are natural, but I very much doubt it. Look, for example at the sky and the upper part of the walls. I suppose it can be fixed though. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 12:58, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Thank you for your review! I did consider the greenish tone of the walls as natural because walls in the shadow often have not only a bluish, but also a little greenish tint; probably the effect is emphasized here by the contrast with the bright red/yellow colours of the sunset. However a little test shows that moving the colour balance by about 10% from green towards magenta may actually improve the image (of course that makes the sunset even more shining ;–). I guess that Ermell will come up with a real solution and ask for your patience. Sorry that I could not resist nominating this image as soon as I saw it ;–). Thank you all, --Aristeas (talk) 18:10, 1 October 2021 (UTC)

- @Ermell: I don't think doing a selective saturation reduction on the greens is the right move here. You can still see the green tint at the top of the sky, which shouldn't be this color. I would shift the WB more towards the magenta side, and maybe saturation won't need to be reduced by so much as a result. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 02:27, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

- Comment Had the same idea as Kreuz – at the left I cannot spot the focal plane at all, neither the foreground (gravestone) nor the middleground (church) or background (trees) is in focus. I fear the lens needs help, sorry. That’s very annoying for you, but it happens (I had to try 3 copies of a certain highly praised lens before I found one which worked reasonably well). Another possibility is that the lens mount on the camera is not correctly aligned with the sensor; in extreme cases this can cause similiar problems, but fortunately that problem is rarer. --Aristeas (talk) 18:23, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
- Weak oppose Good enough in the 'wow' stakes for me, I think it's the perfect angle to capture the church from, but the bottom left corner is too unsharp IMO. Cmao20 (talk) 14:09, 4 October 2021 (UTC)

- Info Ca. 5 centimetres (2.0 in) small Serpula vermicularis, Arrábida Natural Park, Portugal. Serpula vermicularis is not a flower, plant or a coral but a segmented marine polychaete worm. Yes, a worm in the family Serpulidae that lives in a tube into which it can retract. Serpula vermicularis is a filter feeder and extends its radioles to catch phytoplankton and detritus. If you approach to them they retract instantly. The tube where the worm lives is calcareous and is attached to a rock, boulder or other hard surface and has a length of 20 centimetres (7.9 in), but is usually shorter than this. The tube is built by the worm using calcium stored in two white sacs on the ventral side of the second segment, or peristomium. The tube is fabricated by the glandular ventral shields on the other thoracic segments, where calcium is mixed with an organic secretion to make a paste. This is formed into shape by a collar found just behind the first segment, the prostomium. The anterior part of the worm protrudes from the tube and has a plume of about 40 feather-like radioles projecting from the peristomium, which also houses the two eyes and the mouth. A funnel-shaped lid or operculum covers the entrance to the tube when the animal retracts inside. c/u/n by me, Poco a poco (talk) 06:47, 3 October 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose -- Small picture,
does it meet the 6MP requirement ?Also, right now it looks soft to me around the edges and corners -- Dey.sandip (talk) 07:28, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
- I know 2 MPix requirement. -- -donald- (talk) 06:47, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Small (3.6MP) and so soft it seems almost to have been upscaled. Quite a lot of what we see is blurred, for whatever reason. Importantly, this is a tube worm, and we can't see anything recognisable as a tube, which greatly reduces the EV. It is a bit like one of those close-up photo quizzes where contestants are asked "What on earth is this?" and the photo zooms out to include more or better examples of the subject. Compare File:Serpula vermicularis 1.jpg which although also small, has sharp detail of the head, a good amount of the tube too, and is clearly and obviously a tube worm. -- Colin (talk) 08:09, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Colin, Dey.sandip. No, the image hasn't been upscaled, in fact, I've never upscaled any of the over 20,000 images I've uploaded on Commons. I've increased now the sharpness/clarity and the crop, which was a bit tight as it seems to be a major success factor here (offering now 5,6 MP). Is there a rule about 6 MP? I haven't heard about that and I cannot find anything here. Getting detail of these things is really tricky, they are very shy, Charles can confirm it, and vanish in 1 msec. The feedback regarding the missing tube is fair. I do see detail here but there is of a shallow DoF, too. I've been thinking about nominating this 2 images (1, 2) as a set, what do you think? Poco a poco (talk) 10:43, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, they withdraw rapidly when threatened. Ones I've seen soon come out again, but they could be different family. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:00, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- I didn't think you would upscale, but there really isn't any pixel-level detail in many of these shots, which is a problem if you are only offering 3MP to begin win. I wonder if your shutter speed is too low. 1/200 (and 1/250 in your linked examples), for shooting moving wildlife seems too slow. DoF could also, I agree, be an issue, but I can't really say I found any part to have detail that wasn't several pixels wide. Wrt the linked pair, I'm not keen on set nominations becoming a poor man's video. I know the set rules allow a sequence of frames but I think there has to be a purpose behind freezing the frames for close study rather than simply offering what could be two frames of a better video. For the open frame, you can see a little hairy plant/creature above the tube is quite sharp. But the tube is mostly completely out of focus, and the worm head is soft again likely due to motion. For the closed frame, the focus seems to be slightly in front of the tube, and the head is quite out of focus with just sharpening artefacts. I'm sure you are pleased to have captured a specimen but I think you do need to consider the usual FP aspects of "wow" regarding the whole image and photographic aspects like composition, subject-isolation, lighting. Compare your File:Gusano de fuego (Hermodice carunculata), Madeira, Portugal, 2019-05-31, DD 45.jpg where the animal stands out immediately from the surroundings, and is snaking through the frame. Or compare File:Spirobranchus giganteus (Christmastree Worm - yellow variation).jpg and tell me your reaction on seeing that isn't "ooooh". The light and colours and pretty christmas-tree form jump out at you. That's what FP should be about, rather than a photo that is more: I managed to get it all in the frame, bits of it are in focus, and we don't have anything better on Commons. -- Colin (talk) 09:28, 4 October 2021 (UTC)

Daniel Case (talk) 18:02, 4 October 2021 (UTC)- @Herusutimbul, Danu Widjajanto, A.Savin, and Daniel Case: I have reduced the CAs on the spoon; please have a look if you like the new version. Intentionally no other changes. — Disclaimer: I am aware of COM:OVERWRITE, but in the FPC discussions it is generally recommended not to create a separate file if the changes are very minor. IMHO it would be much better if the photographer did such changes on the base of the original raw image file, but often photographers who are not FPC regulars do not respond to such requests. Therefore I have changed the file in order to avoid that the FP nomination fails just because of that obvious, but simple technical error. Hope it helps, --Aristeas (talk) 09:57, 5 October 2021 (UTC)

- Info View of Tritons' Fountain during the blue hour, Valletta, Malta Island, Malta. The fountain, located just outside the City Gate of Valletta, consists of three bronze Tritons holding up a large basin, balanced on a concentric base built out of concrete and clad in travertine slabs. The fountain is one of Malta's most important Modernist landmarks and was designed and constructed between 1952 and 1959 by eminent sculptor Chevalier Vincent Apap and his collaborator draughtsman Victor Anastasi. The sculptural group collapsed in 1978 and was repaired between 1986 and1987. In 2017 it underwent the last renovation works. c/u/n by me, Poco a poco (talk) 13:29, 5 October 2021 (UTC)

- Support Very strong image quality, sharp even at full size, and nice golden light. I wish the crops at the sides were a bit less abrupt but this is probably the best you can do in a single frame. Btw, the word is 'underwent', not 'undergoed'. Cmao20 (talk) 13:47, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks, corrected, Poco a poco (talk) 15:10, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Doesn't compare well to our FP fountains, which have WOW! For a start, the water is barely visible, especially at the top. The triton figures in the middle are badly lit and small in the frame. Yes there is resolution from the camera, but the image as a whole isn't FP. The building on the right and the vendor stalls are distracting, and there are ghosts and on the right there are HDR artefacts. Let's compare some others... File:Triton Fountain Valletta Malta.jpg has the most amazing colours, subject isolation and the water is beautifully lit. File:Triton Fountain Modern Valletta.jpg makes me think the figures are having a splash in the sun, and water is excellently backlit and frozen with a fast shutter to sparkle like diamonds. File:The Fountain Club.jpg shows Pride colours and the whole fountain and reflections in the wet pavement. And File:Glorious Triton and LGBTQI rights.jpg shows it can be taken without people. Silhouette is popular: File:Tritons Fountain in Valletta.jpg, File:TRITON FOUNTAIN MALTA.jpg and File:Triton Fountain II.jpg. File:The Triton Fountain.jpg has simpler lighting and stars and captures the whole fountain without distractions. While all those have some technical issues, all of them have some spark of creative wow that is lacking here and which is needed for FP. -- Colin (talk) 16:45, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Composition problem. --Mile (talk) 20:17, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose I think 16mm might not have been the greatest idea here, as the ultra wide angle makes the statues appear much smaller than they really are. I'm normally fine with distorted proportions and the like if it feels like an artistic choice that serves a purpose, but I can't really see the point here. In general, I'll have to agree with Colin regarding lack of WOW. --El Grafo (talk) 13:40, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
- Weak support Ironically, it is in particular Poco’s own wonderful photographs of fountains that have set the bar so high that we now accord no ‘wow’ anymore to beautiful but not quite as dramatic shots of fountains (7 or so of our fountains FPs are by Poco). We now expect wonders of light and colours when somebody nominates a photo of an illuminated fountain. But wonders do not always mean good quality (which, besides the ‘wow’, should still be a criterion for FPs); for example, many of our other photos of this Tritons’ Fountain may have much effect, but also have serious shortcomings (more than one of the cited photos is tilted, some have halos, are obviously overprocessed, simply unsharp etc.). Therefore when I take a step back and look again at this photo it is IMHO still a very good photo of the Tritons’ Fountain and also really impresses me, just in another, more subtle way. What remains are the question whether another angle of view would have been even better (as explained very well by El Grafo) and the HDR problems at the right (black areas, should be fixable). --Aristeas (talk) 16:22, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for your comment, Aristeas, it was a good reminder. Indeed, I counted them, it's 7 FPs of fountains. Reading the feedback of some reviewers here I've something the impression that either I forgot all I learnt or all FPs so far were a kind of gift thank to a favorable star constellation... --Poco a poco (talk) 12:49, 8 October 2021 (UTC)

- Info all by Julesvernex2 (talk) 19:03, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
- Info Taken at Vienna's Main Station with a mobile phone, while rushing from one train to another. I've always liked the image's composition and lighting but, as a self-diagnosed camera nerd and pixel-peeper, didn't think much of its quality. That changed when I printed it and found out it looked great! Julesvernex2 (talk) 19:03, 1 October 2021 (UTC)

- Fair point Dey.sandip, I too was on the fence about the image's orientation. These skylights are quite lanky, so I opted for this particular crop and the landscape orientation to make it look more boxy than it actually is. Julesvernex2 (talk) 08:43, 3 October 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose Too strange for me, no enthusiasm, too artificial. The choice of motif appears arbitrary with this technique. I don't see any point in presenting this building like this. The technology itself does not make a FP for me. --Milseburg (talk) 08:08, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I like the contrast between the solid, conservative, maybe boring classic German school building and the psychedelic manipulation. That contrast makes the manipulation much more funny for me ;–). --Aristeas (talk) 08:18, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose I don't think this meets FP's requirement for non-notable works, that they are "wonderful examples of their particular type or school of art". Since it is possible to apply the algorithm to any image, and tweak the parameters to taste, we potentially have an infinite choice. The high-resolution of this one actually counts against it, as it can only really be "enjoyed" by pixel peeping. The source training data for this example seems to be quite limited (snakes, dogs?) leading to a lot of repetition which gets boring quickly. At a whole-image level, it just looks like someone overlaid an over saturated Paisley pattern. The choice of combining a building, with straight lines, and organic life dreams doesn't work imo. Similarly the combination of pastel coloured building/tree with unpleasantly lurid primary coloured dream spoils the point that one is supposed to get confused between fact and fiction, dream and reality. The best such dream images work at the whole-image level, and where an organic subject is played with by organic imaginary creatures, resulting in one really thinking for a moment that there's a dog here or a bird there. They really do make one think of a nightmare or hallucination. This doesn't do that imo. -- Colin (talk) 08:55, 3 October 2021 (UTC)

Only solution is to try with more wide-angle, 10-11 mm. Fisheye would be too much probably and would destroy ends (end of wires and top of pylon).

- Oppose It looks to me like the "restoration" damaged the painting, which is common - well-meaning people remove too much from paintings, flattening works that are not supposed to look flat. And the older photo is sharper at the same resolution but is higher-resolution. You can make an argument for best in scope for after the latest restoration at VIC. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:20, 7 October 2021 (UTC)

It is also quite considerably cropped. -- Colin (talk) 16:01, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

- Info Basilica of SS. Ulrich and Afra, Augsburg, Bavaria, Germany. The catholic parish, one of the best examples of Gothic architecture in Germany, originated from the Roman tomb of St. Afra, which was martyred in 304. Its high bell tower with an "onion" dome, which dominates the city to the south, served as a prototype for the construction of numerous baroque towers of Bavaria. The church was officially elevated to the rank of imperial abbey in 1577 and in the anniversary 200 years later, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart held and organ concert. c/u/n by me, Poco a poco (talk) 12:07, 8 October 2021 (UTC)

- Ikan Kekek: that's not quite right, the information in the EXIF file is misleading. This image is the result of 3 frames with different shutter speeds: 4, 0,8 and 20 seconds. For some reason I cannot help when creating a merged file from all 3 Lightroom picks up the fastest shutter speed for the EXIF data and ignores the other ones. IMHO the slowest shutter speed would be more accurate, but I don't know how to adjust it, if possible at all. I'm happy if somebody can give me a hint to fix this issue.

- Ikan Kekek: you are probably right, but the pattern is different. After he opposes my pictures a bunch of supports usually follow and even if I address the issues he mentions, there is never a rectification of the vote. So, he just looks for a minor issue to oppose and he nevers come back, that's all but constructive feeedback. Looking back to my opposes in his nominations I'd say that they are more grounded and following votes (at least part of them) consider it as valid. Poco a poco (talk) 10:33, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment To pour oil on troubled waters ;–) I have taken a look at the three annotations.
- Dialing down the highlights on the bright part of the roof is a good idea; I would just try that.
- The twisted tower-like building at the left looks strange, yes, but it seems to be twisted in reality, as other photographs and aerial imagery shows; so no change is necessary.
- The roof going uphill belongs to a very new building, I have found no image for comparison, but the most probable explanation is that the roof is really slanted (there are such roofs); so no change.
- Hope it helps, --Aristeas (talk) 10:16, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
- I reduced the highlights on the roof. I agree with Aristeas the other "issues" are not. I haven't done any edit anywhere here. The building on the left is straight, the roof looks strange but it's as shown here. --Poco a poco (talk) 10:33, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
- Completely agree with Aristeas' review here - the first criticism is fair, the others seem to be genuine features of the scene. Cmao20 (talk) 13:32, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I think oppose was with some reasons, as mentioned. Especially leveled roof seemed strange. Aristeas saw aerial shots and said it is OK. So i remove oppose (i was checking before too).

- Comment The highlight reduction looks silly. The usual Lightroom effect of making it go a bit grey. Compare the image before,and we had what was clearly a very bright incandescent light shining on the roof. Now it looks like there is a grey light shining on the roof, which somehow defeats the laws of physics, by being able to remove colours from what it shines upon. Please, for goodness sake, revert. Sometimes really bright lights are really bright and the only way to fix that, if you think it is a problem, is to ask the council to turn the light down a bit! -- Colin (talk) 16:11, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- I believe that I can find a kind of middle way here reducing the correction, do you believe, Colin, that I should do it after the nom is closed? I think so, but rather double check. Poco a poco (talk) 15:52, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- I don't know why you would wait. You didn't wait or ping the existing voters that you'd reduced the highlights. Why do you think it needs reduced at all? There's clearly a very bright light up there and we are documenting the scene. It is a little bit distracting but it is what it is. -- Colin (talk) 19:57, 13 October 2021 (UTC)

- Info Saint George Basilica, Victoria, Gozo Island, Malta. The St. George's Basilica or San Ġorġ in Maltese is a historic Baroque church situated in the Cittadella of Victoria, the fortified old town in the middle of Gozo, the second largest island in the Maltese archipelago, and is surrounded by a maze of old narrow streets and alleys. Today's basilica was built between 1672 and 1678. c/u/n by me, Poco a poco (talk) 15:02, 5 October 2021 (UTC)

- Info I thought this deserved the star because it is a very beautiful church with lots of intricate detailing and because, as a church in Mexico, it is a bit of a change from the usual Western European focus. The resolution is not as high as some of Poco's recent churches but it is still very high and the sharpness at full size is really good. No other FPs of the motif - indeed, only one other church interior from all of Mexico. created by Poco a poco - uploaded by Poco a poco - nominated by Cmao20 -- Cmao20 (talk) 14:09, 9 October 2021 (UTC)

- Comment The existing FP is redundant, as the nominated picture shows exactly the same (+ more), and has more resolution/detail. That said, I would support a D&R. Regards --A.Savin 12:49, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment "shows exactly the same (+ more)" - this means it is actually a different crop. Delist and replace could be done just if I crop this same to that one. I believe both can be FP, in any case everyone can nominate Delist. This picture can't be a "prisoner" of other photos. --Mile (talk) 17:35, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
- Please, don't interprete the rules or make up new rules, in terms of delist and replace this is all we have as a guide:
This can also be used for cases in which a previous version of an image was promoted to FP, but a newer version of the image has been made and is believed to be superior to the old version, e.g. a newly edited version of a photo or a new scan of a historical image. In particular, it is not intended for replacing older photos of a particular subject with newer photos of the same subject, or in any other case where the current FP and the proposed replacement are essentially different images.
— in: Commons:Featured picture candidates (section Featured picture delisting candidates)
- This candidate fully meets those criteria. If the angle would be different or we had more elements detail in the original one I could understand this discussion, but it isn't the case.
- When I pointed out that the author is the same I didn't mean with that, that this is a relevant criteria for the process, but rather that you know that you have an FP of the same subject from the same POV with much lower resolution. Poco a poco (talk) 11:00, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- The text quoted by Poco actually clearly explains that Delist and Replace is not relevant to this image: "In particular, it is not intended for replacing older photos of a particular subject with newer photos of the same subject". This is a completely new photo, not an edit of an existing or Google Art Project rescan of an identical painting. It doesn't matter that Mile is the photographer of both. @A.Savin, Daniel Case, Ikan Kekek, and Poco a poco: let's not confuse this with English Wikipedia FP, where there can only be one image at FP, or where a better image routinely substitutes for a weaker one and is replaced in the article. If we habitually D&R'd images of the same subject, leaving only one, we'd have to delist several images of the moon, and Poco's Basílica de Notre-Dame would have pushed out Diliff's version, to name just two examples. By all means nominate the old photo for delist if you think it "no longer deserves to be a featured picture" but there's no reason to link it with this nomination. An old featured picture doesn't become crap because get a better one. It makes no sense to oppose this nomination just because there's a weaker one already in the collection. Guys, we are supposed to oppose a nomination if there is already better one in the collection! -- Colin (talk) 15:40, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- It's purely a procedural oppose, which doesn't affect the result. If Mile wanted to behave more respectfully, he should have changed this nom to a D+R. "Two different versions of the same picture cannot both be featured...", but de facto these *are* two different versions, even though not the same picture. Regards --A.Savin 17:25, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- A.Savin, with respect, you are wrong. Mile doesn't need to do a D&R out of "respect" this is not what a D&R is for. They are not the same picture, which refers to what comes out your camera. You and I could take photos of the Ceiling of Ljubljana Cathedral at the same time, and they would be two different pictures, even if very similar. These two images are of the same subject, that's all, and one captures a significantly larger portion of the walls and ceiling. Nobody insisted that Poco D&R Diliff's cathedral. -- Colin (talk) 19:10, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- You can give as many considerations as you want about the process and the intention of D&R. If that rule does not apply here where an old image with less detail and crop is replaced by another one of higher resolution with a bigger crop, then that rule is useless and we need either to change it or introduce a new one. If I look for the finest of Commons and get 10 similar pictures of the same subject and this rules doesn't help for such a case to sort things out, then that rule is useless. That's what I think. Still I will not go back to all those places which have already a FP of mine or of somebody else with a better equipment because that hardly helps the project. Instead we should encourage the photographers to provide new material. --Poco a poco (talk) 16:11, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- Poco a poco and A.Savin, the current D&R rules were proposed here by King of Hearts. It was then added by KoH. The intention was very clearly for "re-edited versions of the same image" or where someone had got hold of a better (higher resolution, better colour/condition) scan of an artwork. The point is to prevent two FPs of an identical source image, only with different processing or resolution. The previous FP here, from six years ago, was 11MP and the single-frame image didn't capture all of the ceiling. The new stitched FPC is 71MP and has no significant crop. You might not feel motivated to take better versions of your own FPs but there are plenty subjects that could do with higher-quality featured pictures, and this one is a huge plus for the project. You weren't required to D&R Diliff's cathedral interior when you nominated yours. BTW, if a photographer wants to D&R their old FP because they feel the old one clearly doesn't meet FP standards, I don't have a problem with that. I do have a problem with folk opposing a new photograph, hugely superior and FP quality, taken six years later, on some misreading of the rules. -- Colin (talk) 07:41, 14 October 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose I can’t make head or tail of this one. Entire image is strongly leaning to the right. Composition is poor – spires cut off while the bottom 40 percent are nothing but dark, featureless foreground and entirely uninteresting. The light painting is somewhat pointless and not too skilfully performed IMHO, but maybe it’s a wisdom quote in a writing I just cannot read. May I ask what makes you think this is one of the very very best images we’ve got on Commons? --Kreuzschnabel 14:57, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- Light painting is not "performed", the description in the image page clearly states how the light trail came into the frame. There is no wisdom quote that one needs to worry about either. There are some perceived shortcomings as mentioned above, though much of that results from not having the choice or option to place the camera other than where it was placed. My reasoning for thinking it was a good image is because of the light which accurately captured the blue and dark prevalent at that time, also the complimentary effect the orange streak creates against the blue backdrop. + This is an image of a place that has not been well documented. -- Dey.sandip (talk) 04:46, 14 October 2021 (UTC)

I'm not particularly keen on cutting out subjects, though accept that one can't turn up at the museum with some black cloth and ask the guards to hold it for you. File:Delfos, museo 13.jpg shows that from a certain angle with a certain lens you can achieve a plain background, though the chosen colour isn't pleasing (other photos suggest this one is paricularly saturated). -- Colin (talk) 12:37, 13 October 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose per Kreuz. ToprakM's nominations have set the bar for photos of fighter jets in flight, and I think they've set it higher than this. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:12, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose It's a nice clean side view that should be very useful for Wikipedia. But the WOW is quite limited compared to other air-to-air shots we've seen here in the past. Quality is also underwhelming. That's 6.5MPx from a Z6, and still noticeably soft at full screen view. f/22 at ISO800 & 1/320 s feels strange to me, or do you need to stop down that much for DOF there? --El Grafo (talk) 14:38, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

Military photography is usually done for documentation, not to record the best possible technical work and like underwater photography, it has its own limitations. This F-2 fighter is only flown by one country, Japan, and its not easy to find and photograph a flying F-2 with a missile loaded under its wings. --IamMM (talk) 04:17, 14 October 2021 (UTC)

There are three other FPs which all have their merits but I think you'll agree this one is very different and probably works better as a clear illustration of the species (it is the infobox pic on ENwiki, surely for that reason) created by Charlesjsharp - uploaded by Charlesjsharp - nominated by Cmao20 -- Cmao20 (talk) 14:21, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- Support -- Cmao20 (talk) 14:21, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose 16MP isn't "High resolution" in 2021. This is half a metre of rodent, not some wee insect. The image is a rather ordinary QI scene and the animal has its back to us, which isn't ideal. The grass surround makes it hard to tell how tall it is. This is a semi-aquatic animal that lives in groups of 10-20, so perhaps we should reward capturing those aspects now. For example File:Banho matinal.JPG shows a family entering the water. Btw, it is lead picture on WP because Charles put it there ;-). -- Colin (talk) 17:13, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- You are right that Charles put it there, but I do wonder whether that really matters; the fact that it has been the stable lead image in the article for several years is a testament to its quality, I feel. Otherwise I accept your arguments though I still feel this is FP quality. Cmao20 (talk) 21:48, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- You must have a different experience to me on Wikipedia. e.g Rat with File:Rattus norvegicus 1.jpg (0.09 Megapixel) for 13 years. Generally, if it looks ok in thumbnail, nobody on Wikipedia will care, and only us FP photographers tend to care that the linked image looks good full screen or full size. -- Colin (talk) 12:29, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- I understand that obviously it doesn't indicate by itself that a photo is of FP quality. Cmao20 (talk) 13:23, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose I appreciate
Charles'sthe nomination, and I acknowledgehisCharles's work on this, but ...hisCmao's argument makes a better case for VI than FP. It's an excellent "this is what one looks like" image for me, even taking Colin's point about the background into account. It is so successful at that, however, that it normalizes the creature's appearance to the point of depriving the image of any wow ... it looks here like something I'd expect to see hanging out in my yard. (and yes, of course, I realize that statement reflects a particular geographic perspective, and that some of the fauna that visit my yard during the average 24-hour period would indeed seem exotic and strange to people from elsewhere in the world, excluding perhaps the four birds in and around cages near me that are native in the wild to either Australia or Indonesia (and a fifth indigenous to North America)).

- Oppose I don't mind blown lights in general when they occur as part of a larger scene since they're very hard to avoid, but when it is the actual subject I think a better job could be done to control the highlights (e.g. HDR). -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 17:56, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I respectfully disagree, a light is a light is a light. If anything on a photo is supposed to be blown, that should be … a light. In fact, being blown is the very nature of a light! Blown subjects are undesirable on a photo because they hide the detail. As far as I know, no present-day light sources have any kind of detail except, maybe, the old filament bulbs. Even in those cases, you would have to compensate so much that the light would no longer look like a light. Alvesgaspar (talk) 19:55, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- I think if it's a small speck in the middle it's fine - the blown-out area here is a bit too large for my tastes. Also the lamp does have detail, as you can see in the bumpy surface in the non-blown-out parts. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 02:17, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per Rhododendrites. If the background were dark blue, perhaps. Wrt the blown area, I disagree with King of Hearts. When looking directly at a light source, the DR will exceed a JPG and the human eye would only perceive the bumpy surface away from the strongest glow. So I don't have a problem with the central area being blown. However, I'd expect it to be at FF in at least one colour channel rather than paper-white. Have the highlights been reduced in post, or Nikon's JPG capped the brightness? -- Colin (talk) 12:19, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for your comments, Colin. Yes, the highligths were very slightly reduced. But not too much, for the reason you invoked about the (non)response of the human eye. I could have manipulated the background to look like dark blue, instead of almost black. That possibility crossed my mind but I felt guilty with just the thought... By the way, I was scared to death by the number of characters in your comment (666), as if the devil himself had joined the discussion... :) -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 15:47, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- I shall take more care over my byte count in future! I only suggested blue if it was indeed the blue hour, and not to fake it. I think we have a tendency on Commons to be terrified of the blown areas (Lightroom makes them too easy to spot with red warning) and think reducing the highlights to eliminate that angry red warning will somehow improve the image. Of course highlight reduction can help at times, but I think we should let light sources burn brightly. I'd rather my screen was shining as bright as it could than some odd paper white. Maybe one day we'll see JPG replacement that can do HDR get adopted for Commons. -- Colin (talk) 19:26, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- Single-channel clipping would be fine for me as well, but not such a huge white area. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 16:38, 13 October 2021 (UTC)

- Regretful weak oppose Compositionally it's great; I like the abstraction and the symbolism it creates when you consider when it was taken, at the beginning of a dark time.

- Comment I know it is an old discussion, but I still don’t understand what we are supposed to judge here (and same for the nomination below). Should I vote against a work by Tiziano ? Should I say NO because I dislike cubism (below) ? Ridiculous. As the picture is taken by a bot with the maximum technical but automatic quality available (ok, there are men behind the machine blablabla), it is obviously excellent. Furthermore, I don’t understand why such a picture would benefit of a FP star. Of course I understand and agree with the upload in Commons of GoogleArt Project pictures, but they don’t need labels IMO. Do we have « nominated but not promoted as FP » GoogleArt Project pictures ? I cannot support, I cannot oppose, I can even not remain neutral. So I Abstain .--Jebulon (talk) 22:36, 13 October 2021 (UTC)

- Support. I think my answer, Jebulon, is that photography is partly for documentation, and this humongous, sharp reproduction is a great document. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:40, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- Support according to Ikan's argumentation. Sometimes I like a painting more, sometimes less. When I like it, the support is very clear. If I don't like it so much, but the resolution is outstanding, then I also support it because I have respect for the art and I am grateful that Commons is enriched with these works. Great art deserves a feature, regardless of personal taste. It is part of the cultural identity of mankind. This is just my humble opinion and an evaluation of the above comment.

- Question On what? -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 22:09, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment In addition to Ermell's comment about overexposure: Would you happen to have any frames from further down? Right now it looks a bit top-heavy with so much vertical space at the top and no floor at the bottom. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 22:03, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
- You are right, it would be better with a bit more space at the bottom. But I don't have it. Alvesgaspar (talk) 22:11, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
- Weak oppose it’s a pity but the blown ground (plus the blown parts of the columns) and the vertically unbalanced composition spoil it. Even if you crop the top quarter out, the foreground bottom would still be missing. --Kreuzschnabel 10:14, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

- Info Ehrenberg Castle near Heinsheim, Bad Rappenau, Germany, seen from the north. Ehrenberg Castle is situated on a hill overlooking the Neckar valley (left) and is said to have been founded in the early 12th century. The Bergfried (keep) was built in 1235 and is still 50 m high today; note the tree growing on it ;–). Around the keep is the inner bailey from the 12th and 13th centuries, which today (with the exception of the high gable on the left) has fallen into ruins. The outer bailey was built in the 17th and 18th centuries, has been preserved and is still partly inhabited. – This is certainly not the most magnificent castle in Germany, but it was a respectable castle and I like the combination of buildings from different eras and in different states.

- Comment Daniel, Mile: Thank you for your reviews! However fullfilling that request is much more difficult than one may expect. The colour of the sky is at least partly due to the polarizer I had to use. When I dial down the temperature of the sky the colour does not become better, as one may expect, but much more unrealistic. After several unsuccessful attempts I have now (1) moved the colour balance of the sky a bit more towards magenta and (2) reduced the saturation and contrast in the topmost part of the sky. The result seems at least reasonable to me. Is the result going into the direction you mean? Best, --Aristeas (talk) 18:07, 17 October 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose I like that he's got wet spots from the rain. But the composition with the background isn't ideal, and you are missing his tail. The light isn't spectacular. If I look at File:Dragon on the Dragon Bridge (Ljubljana).jpg, I wonder about some other composition choice. Perhaps a focal length and angle-of-view could get the wing to point at the spire and achieve as much to the right of the dragon as possble, while avoiding the street sign. -- Colin (talk) 12:47, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Composition issue. The building near the tail of the dragon is distracting -- Dey.sandip (talk) 13:59, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per others – quality as such is really good but the dull light, distracting background and cut-off tail spoil it I’m afraid. May I ask what you used the ND filter for, what benefit did you get from the longer exposure time? --Kreuzschnabel 15:07, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- Info Compo is "ideal" to the degree we have (trafic, people, signs). For beter i would need higher position. Tail goes behind at that spot, it not possible to get it all from that spot. Glow at tongue - i highlighted mouth. Kreuz benefit of wind+clouds+ND - you get soft and nice back, clouds dont appear as sharp structure, easier to stay focused on main subject - dragon. Light-dull, i wanted that way. --Mile (talk) 16:50, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I’d say to soften the clouds you’d need exposure times of one minute or so, they really don’t move that far within 0,8 s. --Kreuzschnabel 20:12, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- Support Honestly a bit surprised this is not doing better, a very striking composition and the light isn't so much dull as brooding, which really helps the atmosphere. A blue sky would not work as well for this motif. Cmao20 (talk) 07:17, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- Support per Cmao20. Looking at some of the other shots in Category:Dragons on the Dragon Bridge (Ljubljana), blue sky and the harsh shadows that come with it don't really work with this subject, imho. Those are happy tourist snaps of a statue, while this one shows a dragon. --El Grafo (talk) 08:23, 14 October 2021 (UTC)

- Strong support per others. Per Ikan, has iconic (ahem) potential ... Very baroque, looks like something a great painter of a past century might have chosen to depict if they could see our times, because I, too, can see both the hope and the fear of a time standing in darkness looking up to the light. Should be used a lot more around the projects. Daniel Case (talk) 16:25, 19 October 2021 (UTC)

Weak opposeI was on the fence about this one but I agree with Ikan, great composition and quality but the sky is so dull. I am not insisting that all shots have to be under a bright blue sky, but this isn't a dark brooding sky either, it's just grey. Strong QI but I honestly feel like it shouldn't be FP seeing someone could easily reshoot under better light. Cmao20 (talk) 21:57, 14 October 2021 (UTC)

- I don't have a problem with cloning out occasional litter or birds in the sky (sometimes they just look like streaks). These things are not the subject and are here one moment and blown away the next. If the subject was about tourist mess, or "the times" we live in, then of course we'd keep that stuff, but the subject is an old castle. -- Colin (talk) 15:31, 15 October 2021 (UTC)

- Neutral Composition is awkward with features on the left and right that detract from the image. The nearby cross looms large, emphasised by the wide-angle perspective. The colourspace is wrong (ProPhotoRGB) and should be sRGB. ProPhotoRGB is too huge for 8-bit JPG leading to posterising and incorrect colour and nobody has a display that wide anyway. The scene could probably have benefited from HDR to retain some detail on the highlighted bricks. -- Colin (talk) 12:50, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- The file name would imply that HDR has in fact been used. But I guess you could argue the scene could have benefited from *more* HDR :) Cmao20 (talk) 13:25, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- Ok, as now two of you complain about the building on the right, I cropped it out along with a chunck on the left (and I used sRGB to export it). Thanks for the hints. Poco a poco (talk) 18:51, 15 October 2021 (UTC)

- I think I see your point in that the sky is quite a deep, dark blue. But I have checked the histogram and there is no loss of detail in the shadows (which I think you can see when you zoom in), so I would say it is maybe a tad on the dark side but not underexposed. Let's see what others think. DXR, I am pinging you in case there are any changes you'd like to make Cmao20 (talk) 21:53, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- This scene has somewhat low dynamic range, so there is a range of exposures which would not cause clipping on either end. It doesn't mean that all those exposures should be subjectively considered "correct". A bright facade should be much lighter than this. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 00:20, 15 October 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose Just a QI. I agree the sky looks oddly dark. I think "under exposed" is technically incorrect as one may well expose to avoid clipping or to reduce shadow noise and indent to adjust afterwards to produce an image that appears how one perceived it. The actual exposure isn't really that important outside of extremes. -- Colin (talk) 12:35, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- I agree with your point about exposure. What would an FP image of a church facade look like to you? I feel like it's superior to many photos already in the category, compare here or here which are both less sharp and detailed at full size and IMHO are less interesting motifs. Cmao20 (talk) 13:31, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- One of the problems with photographing tall facades is getting far enough back. This seems there isn't enough room to breath, and the sky clouds just seem to add to the feeling for me. The photos you linked are quite old and I don't think the Warsaw photo would scrape through today. The other one has more interesting features. But maybe tastes vary about what is appealing. -- Colin (talk) 14:11, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you for your fair review. Cmao20 (talk) 16:16, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I comprehend Colin’s “there isn't enough room to breath”, but it could make a difference if one would brighten up the image a bit, as King of Hearts has suggested – IMHO this would give the photo also a lighter, more relaxed mood. So I would suggest to DXR to try it out. --Aristeas (talk) 18:02, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- Support Daniel Case (talk) 02:38, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Many thanks for the nomination and reviews. I have brightened the picture by 0.4 EVs, which indeed looks a bit more appropriate on my screen. The facade can only be photographed from a courtyard, so naturally there is a limit to how far back you can move for the photo. I feel that there isn't too much distortion, but personally, I would think of this as a good QI, not necessarily a FP. --DXR (talk) 11:00, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
- KoH, is this change enough for you to support? Cmao20 (talk) 19:54, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose I agree the subject it has potential, but isn't captured well enough for FP. Perhaps just one swimmer would be best, like a specimen in amber. The image as a whole seems under exposed. Cmglee, I don't know what software you use to edit your photos, but this one has no exif data at all. It really needs at least a minimal set of data, including colour space, otherwise it isn't guaranteed to render well on different devices. -- Colin (talk) 07:42, 21 October 2021 (UTC)

- Support Very detailed. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 21:04, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose not FP for me. More space is taken up by the ornate frame than the old photograph (whereas most reproductions we see here of a painting/photograph have the frame cropped out, to focus on the subject.) The old photograph itself is not exceptional quality for the era it's made in, or otherwise extraordinary, so I don't see what makes this FP quality. Buidhe (talk) 21:17, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- Support Buidhe has made a good case against this image. Well, I see it the other way around ;–). The detailed reproduction of the ornate frame which fits the old photograph perfectly in style and size makes this photo special. The old photograph itself is of good quality, I guess it is just (because of the thick glass) a bit out of focus. The theme is also important: the old photograph with its nostalgic frame reminds us of how long how many African Americans have served their country faithfully, but are still not fully respected and acknowledged by many of their fellow citizens. --Aristeas (talk) 06:54, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

When the Library of Congress writes "Frame: Berg 7-22", it refers to a specific image and number in the book Nineteenth Century Photographic Cases and Wall Frames by Paul Berg, which is a reference work for people who work with or collect images from the Daguerreotype- and Ambrotype-Era. The extensive list of cases and frames in "the Berg" is a tool to date works from the first years of photography like this (only very few Daguerreotypes or Ambrotypes have information about the date the image was taken on the back of the case or frame). So, without the frame, important information is missing. I encourage everyone to not crop pictures like this. Best --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 02:45, 21 October 2021 (UTC)

- Comment Verticals leaning in (background, both sides). And please turn the contrast/saturation slider a few light years to the left, yes. --Kreuzschnabel 19:18, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Sorry for the delay. I have asked Maksimsokolov about this photo on his talk page and (in short) he does not want to change this photo because “it contains the mood of Montreal I felt that day”. IMHO this is a perfectly valid point of view. First, we can see on other photos (e.g. on this POTY 2020 finalist ;–) how colourful autumn actually can be in that province of Canada. Second, we know at least since the discussions about the subjective photography movement by Otto Steinert et all. that photography can be seen as expression of the artist’s mood, impressions and ideas (and not as a mere reflection of reality). The unfortunate point is that in this case the result has by chance some similarity with a postcard; this may explain why Steinert et all. had most success with rather abstract and unconventional subjects). And, of course, this is not the kind of photography we are used to here on the FPC page ;–). The style followed by most of us, including me, has more similarity with the Neue Sachlichkeit (normally insufficiently translated with “New Objectivity”; but Sachlichkeit means also simplicity, rationality, functionality, sense of realism, matter-of-factness). --Aristeas (talk) 08:50, 19 October 2021 (UTC)

- Support. Lighting is tricky and there are pro and con to harder light for this kind of subject. Hard light from an angle can bring out the 3D details of a building like this. The totally soft light from an overcast day would be different, though looking at File:10083-Batalha (48985860766).jpg, can still be very detailed. -- Colin (talk) 10:09, 19 October 2021 (UTC)

- Info A new version was uploaded to address the concerns of Aristeas and Colin regarding light temperature. Although the impression I got when taking the photo was that the light was indeed too harsh and cold, a little adjustment was made to the white balance, which I justify with artistic liberty... -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 11:01, 20 October 2021 (UTC)

Wollen wir vielleicht mal ein Spiel wagen?
- Danke für deinen Hinweis. Ich werde alles umbenennen und die Beschreibung anpassen. Das Ganze spiegelt meinen Kenntnisstand bezüglich Go wider. Es wäre vermessen, wenn ich mich als Anfänger bezeichnen würde. Eine Runde habe ich nach der Lektüre der Spielregeln gespielt und das war völlig daneben. (Und das übrigens noch auf der Rückseite des Bretts mit 9x9 Knotenpunkten.) Seither habe ich zumindest mit Hilfe von Videos mal einen Eindruck des Spiels bekommen. Mal schauen, wie es weiter geht. Mit Schach bin ich - als Vergleich - nie wirklich warm geworden und das, obwohl ich Strategie- und Taktikspiele (Brett- und Kartenspiele, nicht online) eigentlich mag. Ich befürchte, dass wir derzeit sehr ungleiche Partner wären, aber im Grunde bin ich nie abgeneigt, ein Spiel zu machen. --XRay 💬 05:17, 21 October 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose I agree the colours look odd. But in the end, this is a fairly typical street in an old part of town. What would elevate this would be a wet reflective ground and/or interesting people. On Commons, we generally avoid people, and that's a loss, because the best photographs elsewhere generally have them. -- Colin (talk) 07:36, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Per Colin. I don't mind the color, actually, even if it looks like someone tried to compensate too much for the warmth of the light on the already warm bricks. And this idea might work, even without a wet surface or people. But what undoes this image for me is that it's a little busy and the shapes seem random.

- Support Though I don't think this benefits from 175MP and there isn't really pixel level detail to reward close inspection. It could be reduced 50% without any loss of information IMO, and would make for a more accessible image for re-use. It isn't the most detailed of subjects so all we get are an awful lot of beige and blue pixels. -- Colin (talk) 18:55, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment For now, i will leave it since it is for Wiki Loves Monuments Slovenia. Otherwise, some 40-50 Mpx should be enough. I could do one stuff to have both, 1st original, after it downsized to "normal" size, both would be on same page, and link at "other version" to original. --Mile (talk) 19:55, 19 October 2021 (UTC)

- Weak oppose the quality is excellent but I'm not sold on the angle/composition, especially the tree on the left and the way the building looks cut off in that direction.

- Question Definitely has wow. Have you tried denoising the dark areas more? It makes sense to brighten them to get the geological details, but at full size (and somewhat below), the noise/banding is pretty distracting. If denoising affects the detail too much, the top could possibly withstand a small crop? It has enough wow that I'm undecided even with the noise. — Rhododendrites talk | 12:49, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
- Rhododendrites you were right, noise was too visible, I reduced it and opted also for a slight crop at the top, what do you think? --Poco a poco (talk) 20:09, 27 October 2021 (UTC)

- Dear King of Hearts, sorry, but the phrase “church FPs are a dime a dozen” seems very derogatory to me and is an offence to all creators of FPs showing churches, even to the ones who created the very best pictures, e.g. Diliff. I would be happy if good photographs of churches would be that cheap as “a dime a dozen”, but looking at all the myriads of mediocre and bad photos of churches here or on Flickr one can easily learn that it is not that easy ;–). IMHO it would be better to avoid such derogatory phrases in general, regardless whether we are talking about photos of churches, of landscapes, of animals, or whatever. Wouldn’t it be enough for your argument to say e.g. “we have alredy got many FPs of churches”? – Please do not misunderstand this as a personal attack; I am targetting the phrase, not you. IMHO the conversation on this pages is getting rougher from month to month, we have already put off some talented photographers, we should not strengthen that bad tendency. --Aristeas (talk) 11:23, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
- Apologies, it could have been worded better. Diliff's high-resolution HDR interiors are absolutely deserving of the FP star. What I mean is that a picture of a church of middling resolution with no distinctive features at thumbnail size does not meet the FP bar for me. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 20:51, 24 October 2021 (UTC)

- Support IMHO this one has deserved a little bit more love ;–). Yes, the “wow” is a very subjective factor, and for me this image definitely has got “wow”. A very picturesque church, definitely with some historic importance, built in an interesting style combining undressed stone, brick stone and wood, seen from a advantageous point of view, surrounded by picturesque (again) vegetation. The composition reminds me of some Dutch veduta painters from the 17th century. Because of this I would definitely not crop the image – the current framing is very well-balanced, we need to see the stone wall before the church until its end at the right and also that glimpse of the golden cornfield. There is only one disruptive element, namely the cut-off twigs on the right edge (marked with an image note). But cropping the whole image at the right to remove them would IMHO damage the composition (see above), so I would clone these twigs out – I see no ethical problem here, a mere gust of wind would be enough to move these twigs out of the frame, so it is also OK to clone them out. --Aristeas (talk) 08:14, 24 October 2021 (UTC)

- Weak support Beautiful motif. I would prefer it if the sky were a little more interesting - the featureless blue doesn't provide the eye with anything to look at except the church itself. Cmao20 (talk) 16:31, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per others. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:10, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Nice church photo, but no wow, plus the quality is not really good; plus the tower is tilted. --A.Savin 20:22, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per A. Savin and others. --GRDN711 (talk) 16:52, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
- Neutral In accordance with Aristeas' factually convincing argumentation. -- Radomianin (talk) 14:04, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose Nice to look at but not incredibly special, and the masts lean way to the left. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:38, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per Ikan.--Peulle (talk) 07:32, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose An unexceptional random landscape with an inconvenient cloud (?) shadow at lower right. Daniel Case (talk) 18:36, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per Ikan, interesting view but IMO not outstanding enough for FP and a few technical flaws Cmao20 (talk) 21:42, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose The border between the planet and the background has jagged edges, especially on the right. Nor is the resolution particularly impressive.--Peulle (talk) 07:31, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per Peulle, also I find the panoramic composition rather an odd choice. Jupiter is a fascinating planet but there are better spacecraft photos of it than this Cmao20 (talk) 21:44, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose I like the other one currently in nomination, the one I'll call the Gigantic Ochre Marble, better. Daniel Case (talk) 16:30, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
